Cape Cod in the Winter is a unique time and place in the world. During the Summer the place is swarming with tourists and cars and the beaches are often packed. The few highways are often choked with traffic jams caused by people wanting to "get away" from the hustle and bustle of the mainland -- an amusing paradox. But during the Winter months, things slow down and you can witness the seclusion, quiet, and natural beauty of the swamps, salt flats, cranberry bogs (as seen here) and beaches that most of the Summer warriors probably never get to experience in their purity.

I also shot a bunch of slide film and you can see that Tabblo here.

No, not the Arctic but close! The western shores of Cape Cod fill up with ice which gives you a sight many people don't get to see unless they live near the Great Lakes or further north.

Enjoy the views but don't walk too far off the beach... you may fall in like I almost did.

Nature's Wintery cycle is evident on the shores of Mayo Beach in Wellfleet. We discovered a recently deceased sea bird that must have floated in on a lone piece of ice. There was something noble and graceful about this bird, even in its death, and so I felt compelled to document it. Within ten meters of the bird could be found the carcass of a coyote or dog. Such a strange coincidence.
